A stronger ligament, less often injured.
The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is stronger and less frequently injured than its counterpart, the ACL. A common cause is a motor vehicle accident, when the knee strikes the dashboard on impact.
Initial treatment is rest, elevation, compression, and ice. Recovery is often supported by Physical Therapy combining progressive strengthening with functional exercise, and surgery is rarely necessary.
Progressive strengthening without surgery, in most cases.
Most PCL injuries respond well to a structured, non-surgical rehabilitation program focused on restoring strength and stability around the knee.
